Forget about someone visiting ship to check out his stash, I want ship to host a Retro Video Game Hunter show where he traverses the country looking for unique and hard to find video games and video game memorabilia.

Wombat. . . when you upgraded to 50mbs from verizon did they give you a new router (a red one)?

When I upgraded, my internet speed actually went down (from about 20MPS to about 5MBPS). I called verizon and they sent me a new router, i plugged it in and my speeds skyrocketed (50MBP+).

If you have a new router I would suggest that you give them a call. Here are the stages:

1) They will put the blame on you. You will have to un-plug and replug in everything you own (including your blender). When they say that your speeds my be effected by WIFI say "If I was getting 30MBPs i would see your point, but 4MBPs is not a WIFI issue).

2) They will ping your system and do some internal computer wizzardry. This sometimes works.

3) They will offer to send you a new router. If that does not work, they will then send out a tech rep to inspect your line.

4) The Tech Rep will come over and plug weird devises into your shit. Usually they will figure something out, if not i would switch providers.

EDIT: Your initial call to Verizon will take about 45 minutes to an Hour. It is NOT a fast process. Sometimes they will offer to call you back if they have to do extensive tests (9 out of 10 times they won't call you back and you will have to call them and start over with someone new). I have gone through this process about a 1/2 dozen times (I hate verizon).
